We have a solution forproblems with failure causedby electro-chemical corrosion!

Electro-Chemical Corrosion

Electro-chemical stress series is a so-called physical constant. Therefore it is quite astonishing how often non-compatible metal pairs are used in different technical applications. The more noble material "behaves as a kind of victim" towards the less noble material. Owing to this phenomenon even ferrite-free metals (e.g. stainless steel) may corrode. In combination with liquids (electrolyte) this effect can also occur over longer distances. Crevice corrosion is a form of damage intensified by electro-chemical behavior.

MetaLine Series XL offers synthetic materials with highly ceramic wear protection portion. They are basically free of metals and absolutely neutral within the electro-chemical order system. If they are used e.g. as adhesives between two metals they insulate each other and inhibit any electro-chemical corrosion. A very high thermal expansion coefficient and good flexibility guarantee this characteristic even with thermal alternating stresses or component bending.
